We have spent yesterday and today in preparing our- selves for what is to come. We are looking toward the future with its endless possibilities and its limitless opportunities, eagerly awaiting the time when we shall take our appointed places in this changing world. We have tried to make our- selves fit for the job which now is ours as America's sons and daughters. BUT WHAT, TOMORROW? A tomorrow which shall bring a just and lasting peace- a peace which cannot and will not be shattered by the thunder- ing guns of war. A tomorrow in which all men, regardless of race or color shall have the privileges which we as Americans have enjoyed so long. A tomorrow in which nations shall be part of a great international order-a United States of the World. A tomorrow which shall be filled with opportunities in many fields calling for skilled and concentrated effort. A tomorrow in which a creative society shall go forward to new heights of achievement. These are the things for which we hope. These are our ideals and our goals, but they are also our problems. We must have the vision to see things as they are now, the imagination to dream of things as they might be, and the courage to make our dreams come true. We live in today but we live for tomorrow. 4- MRS. ELLA F. LONG Because they have given to us inspiration and guidance throughout our high school years, because they have cooperated so will- ingly in everything we have undertaken, and because they have been sincere friends as well as capable instructors, we, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Forty-four, dedicate this, our year book, to Mrs. Ella F. Long and Mr. Griffith O. jones. DEDICATION The Ieezrher if cl hzzilcler. He worhr with higher om! filler mines of rwilizotiofz. The Iearher if 4 friend.

We hope and pray that your educational founda- tions are secure and that' you will readily fit into your proper niche-fighting front, industrial front, or home front. The coming year promises to bring to our nation many heartaches and grave responsi- bilities-but also a glorious and just Peace. . . . a heavier load, . . . a higher toll, . . . a harder road, . . . a grealer goal, All this' and more, The Promise of 'Forty Four.

The future of mankind depends upon the type of civilization which issues' from this war. Upon you and yours rests a share of the burden and res onsibility of creating a better world, The knowledge and spirit of willingness to serve that you have attained throughout your years of schooling should aid much in hel ing you to live in harmony with yourself and your fhllowman. .

To our surprise we were greeted by Richard McLarnon, our former classmate, who upon inquiry disclosed that he was now Philadelphia's foremost designer of women's clothing. Asking about some of the other members of the Class of '44 we learned that Charles Hild is now Head Usher at Fay's Theater, while Florence Cherry and William Porter are now the famous Boogie Woogie Duet currently featured in Charles Ammon's vaude- ville act. Having now eaten what little was to be found in Richie's refrigerator, we bade him a fond farewell and ambled toward the center of town, where we were all but swept off our feet by two of the borough's most efficient street cleaners, Winfield Fraser and Richard AKelly. We would liked to have stopped and chatted a while but these two industrious fellows could only stop work long enough to say hello. Continuing on our aim- less way we heard the unfamiliar chords of an operatic selection. By peering through a window we observed jack Nash, who was giving ballet lessons. After closer inspection we made out the forms of his pupils who were none other than Mary Lou Collins, Marion Hallas, and Lillian Augustus. As we were contentedly watching the remarkable performance of jack's protegees we were startled by the -sound of a man's sobs across the street. We crossed over to see if we could be of assistance and found Charles Shaffer, now the town burgess. We asked him what the trouble was and found that he was crying because Roosevelt had been elected for the sixth term. We tried to console him but making no progress we continued our stroll and saw, in the midst of a crowd of small children, Bob Lorenz playing a street organ while Marie Subers was gathering in the pennies with a tin cup. Upon questioning Bob we learned that Janice Heckman is the chief entertainment at Ma's tavern, while Edgar Reed is now the town's chief of police since Herb Allen resigned. Reed's right hand man is Francis Curry, while his chief operator of the police radio is Kitty QPistol-Packingj Desmond. Ed Browne, current heavyweight champion, was last reported to have weighed 265 pounds. Further quizzing disclosed that Anne Yurgensen, who married an up-state farmer, is now working at the Farmers Market with Marjorie Duncan. Guistwhite is the head football coach at the University of Pennsylvania and Gloria Hoffecker is her able assistant. Bud Yocum is now a grease monkey at Bill Hilbert's garage while Howard Larer is teaching English at Sharon Hill High School and Gladys Lott is working for Ajax cleaners. We left Leo at this point to look for a decent meal, not having been satisfied by Rich's meager offering. As we walked down Sharon Ave., we came upon a new establishment, a high-class restaurant. We sighted a service entrance on the side and sneaking past a door- man, made our way into the kitchen hoping to high pressure the cook into giving us a meal. We were utterly astounded when we recognized the chef to be jack Carlisle. He seemed glad to see us and offered us some of his favorite concoctions. We, under the theory that God helps those who help themselves, Hlled our stomachs and relaxed as jack answered our questions about former classmates. He told us that Joan Charles is the cashier at the Parker Theater and Betty Milne is the Goalie for the Philadelphia Falcons, while Peg Warrington is a jiu-jitsu expert. Patsy Meitner manu' factures Man Traps and Mrs. Long, one of our class sponsors, is the Chief Sales Manager for The Sunshine Christmas Card Company. Betty Ford is the hat check girl at Winther's night club. At this hot spot Ruth Rose is the featured vocalist with Al Umstead and his orchestra. As we talked, two familiar hgures, jean Dahl- quist and Norma Kopp, breezed in with dirty dishes. We didn't want to get jack in trouble so we left as we had come, this time waving to a surprised doorman, whom we recognized to be jim Gallagher. As we turned into a side street we were attracted by the ramblings of a circus barker who, upon investigation, turned out to be our chubby schoolmate Forrest Montgomery. We were surprised when we were informed by his advertising that among the exhibitions of the show were joy Har- rison, fat ladyg Ida Hafner, a bare-back trick riderg Lois Rice, the much publicized tattooed ladyg and a pair of motorcycle dare-devils, Emily Amy and Frances Griffith. We would like to have stayed in Sharon Hill longer and learned more about the Class of '44, but the open road beckoned us and as we hurried to the freight station we saw the stalwart figure of Mitchell fCrashJ Davis picking cabbage from his patch. Of course he was still proudly wearing his football letter obtained in '44, Much to our dismay our train arrived on time and we boarded the 5:15 Cattle Express, bidding farewell to dear old Sharon Hill and bound for parts unknown. EDWARD HAMILTON MELVIN BISHOP ' Kniglylf of fbe Road CLASS l-IISTCDRY FRESHMAN YEAR In September 1940, a group of ambitious students, suddenly grown-up, entered high school as Freshmen. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ella Long and Mr. Joseph Marshall, we succeeded in carrying Out the planned activities. Our first job was to elect our class officers resulting as follows: Herbert Allen, Presidentg Charles Shaffer, Vice-Presidentg Janice Heckman, Sec- retaryg and Melvin Bishop, Treasurer. Before the Christ- mas holidays, we proudly walked around the halls dis- playing our class pins. We ended 1940 with a class Christmas party-dance, where gifts were exchanged. Completing the year's work, we said finish to the fresh- man year by having a picnic at Morton. SOPHOMORE YEAR Summer pleasures over, we entered our Sophomore year, just a little more sophisticated, and over our passing notes stage. Some students from Folcroft joined us this year to make our class one of the largest in the school. We chose as our class officers: Richard McLarnon, President, Betty Milne, Vice-President, Lois Neatherly, Secretaryg and john Nash, Treasurer. We immediately put' our minds to the preparations and arrangements for our first formal dance, the Soph Hop, which was held November 14. This dance, we thought, of course, was the best dance in the history of the school. Soon after Pearl Harbor, Mr. Marshall left us to join the Navy. Mr. G. O. jones took his place as sponsor of the class, with Mrs. Long. Concluding the Sophomore Year, we enjoyed our annual class picnic at Morton. JUNIOR YEAR When the class of '44 entered its junior year in September 1942, we greeted some new pupils from Colwyn. Our class was divided into three sections with Mrs. Ella Long, Mr. G. O. jones, and Mr. Frederick Fernsler as our sponsors. Our leaders for this year were Richard McLarnon, Presidentg Edgar Reed, Vice-Presi- dent, Gloria Holfecker, Secretary, and john Nash, Treasurer. Early in the fall, many members of the class received their class rings, which we are still proudly wearing. In the fall, joan Charles represented our class in the Dramatic Club play, Poor Little Me. We had our biggest night of the year on April 2 when we held our Junior Prom. The Melodiers, who presented the music, helped to make this affair a success. We again finished our year with a picnic at Morton. SENIOR YEAR As we entered our Senior year, we were lacking four members, who had entered the armed services of our country. They were: Richard McLarnon, Army, Edgar Reed, Navyg Carl Winthers, Navyg and Herbert Allen, Army Air Corps. With Mrs. Long and Mr. Jones as our sponsors, we chose Charles Shaffer, Charles Hild, Gloria Hoffecker, and Edward Hamilton as our class ofticers. Our main objective was to End ways and means of raising money for our yearbook. We sold candy and hot dogs at the football and basketball games, With almost everyone taking part, we sold more Christmas cards than any other class in the history of the school. Then came Athe senior play, Nine Girls, a mystery comedy, with an all-girl cast, which was a huge success. Following the Christmas vacation, we found that three more boys, Kirby Steger, Richard Kelly, and Winfield Fraser, had joined the Navy. The annual Senior Final was held on the evening of May 12. The conclusion of our last year followed the traditional banquet, june 2, Vesper service, june 4, at which Rev. Clinton M. Cherry spoke, and finally the Commencement, june 6. CLASS WILL The Class of '44 in preparing its will, approaches the task with deep appreciation of the chaos and suffering prevailing in the world to-day. As we pass through the portals of our alma-mater, may we one and all extend our gratitude to the faculty for preparing us for our part in the March of Civilization. Now, to transcend from the sublime to the ridiculous, we declare the following to be our last will and testament: To the 1945 sponsors, we will a big bottle of aspirin for their Christmas Card sales.

In its place, a recording dance was held on No- vember 19, 1943, at 8:00 o'clock. The dance was well attended not only by Sophomores but also by the rest of the student body. To supplement their depleted treasury the tenth grade decided to sell magazines. Their efforts were well rewarded, The total sales amounted to over five hundred dollars from which the class realized a profit exceeding two hundred dollars. In the Spring, the sophomores presented an assembly program for the Senior High School. They concluded the year with a class picnic at Morton.

Handicapped by the loss of several promising football players to the Army and Navy, all the games ended in defeat, However, there were times during. the season when the boys played real foot- ball and threatened to bring home a victory. Highlights of the year were in the Lansdowne and Marple-Newtown games, An innovation in Sharon Hill High football was made when Col- lingdale was scheduled for the Thanksgiving game. Greatly outweighed, the Owls pushed Col- lingdale all over the gridiron the first quarter, but the rest of the game was in the hands of Colling- dale.

The schedule was the largest in Sharon Hill's hockey history. The team, composed of eight seniors and four sophomores, had fine spirit and eagerness to win. There was also cooperation among the players, a factor which helped to overcome the difficulties and the handicaps of learning the methods of a new coach. Miss Walters won our gratitude for her excel- lent coaching, and Gladys Lott, who made 11 goals, won our admiration for being the highest scorer of the season. The junior Varsity also had a successful season with six victories and one loss. SCHEDULE S.H. Opp. Academy ..... 5 0 Media . . . . . Yeadon ...... Prospect Park. .

The Owls opened their '45-'44 court season with three non-league games. Starting off with 21 bang, Eddystone was quickly taken into camp but Collingdale and Prospect proved to be too much for us even though the Prospect game was by the narrow margin of a single point. The strong teams of our rivals, Springfield, Clifton Heights, and Yeadon in Section V of the Suburban League, played excellent basketball and scored double victories' over the Hillers. We were able, however, to overcome Marple-Newtown twice and Nether-Providence once in league com- petition. The highlight game of the season occured on Washington's Birthday when The Owls came through with a surprise 36-26 victory over Col- lingdale, In the Kiwanis Tournament at Chester, Sharon Hill was eliminated by Lansdowne in a fast and well played game.

Florence Cherry Nine Girls , our Senior class play, was presented on Saturday evening, November 6, 1943. It was directed by Mr. Fernsler and offered an all-girl cast. The play, a delightful mystery comedy, consisted of a prologue and two acts. The setting was in a sorority clubhouse in California's Sierra Nevada Mountains. In a moment of jealousy and hate, Mary murdered Paula Canfield. In order to cover her hrst crime, Mary had to poison Alice, who was Paula's intimate friend, In attempting to solve both murders, Eva stumbled over evidence which pointed to Maryg consequently, Mary attempted her third murder. Eva was saved by her friends, who immediately told the whole story to the police, Instead of committing suicide as she had planned, Mary gave herself over to the law. The members of the cast gave an excellent performance and the evening was a great financial success. 60 DBAMATIC CLUB PLAYS On Saturday, March 18, 1944, the Dramatic Club presented a Variety Show of three one-act plays. The entertainment utilized the services of all the members of the club, making the evening a true club endeavor. The first play was Who Murdered Who? , a mystery comedy written by Millard Crosby. The play was a hilarious mix-up of threatened victims and suspected murderers. Kit's hobbies, misunderstood snatches of conversation and a ouiji board helped make trouble in a big way.

We are proud of the way they are doing their part and we will be forever grateful for the sacrihces they have made in order that America should remain a democracy. We are confident that in them and in the people of America will be found the faith and stamina to uphold the endearing words of Stephen Vincent Benet. We believe in democracy-in its past, its present, and its future. We believe it is so deeply rooted in the earth of this country that neither assault from Without nor dissension from within can ever wipe it entirely from that earth. But, because it was established for us by the free-minded and the daring, it is our duty now, in danger as in security, to uphold and sustain it with all that nd are.
